MRS A. L, GRIDLEY,
Washington, ID. q.
Following is the poem;
While gathering near with festive cheer
Your bounteous boards fair spreading,
The task 10 mine TO pour the wine;
Our toast-the crystal wedding.
How crystal clear the years appear
As we too look them over,
Since pledged was youth and love aud mirth
To happy bride and lover
The while we gaze, we SEQ no haze
or storm ar cloudy weather.
Ger all doth shine the love divine
That brought ye two together.
The tears that fail, the cares that all
Must know, hover repining.
Like mists that pass from of the glass
Beneath the SUMS bright shining.
oh blessed love, that lives above
All earthly change and sorrow
Drives clouds away aud makes to-day
Sweet promise OF tomorrow.
Tho youth has fed, with some Joys dead,
Since that fair summer morning,
So time doth bring sweeter spring
And sweeter hopes are dawning,
| The little band that round you stand,
With dearer Joys have crowned you;
| And each that came, your love TO claim,
Brought troops OF angels round you.
| These crystal souls your life controls
| Are surely loves best token.
| And few, aye, rev can claim like you,
A circle still unbroken.
| And now TO you. o, happy two,
Loves ilowery path still treadinR,
| With Joy we come TO fill you home,
And Keep your crystal wedding
And much we pray this marriage day,
Joining new years and olden,
| May bid love wait TO celebrate
The silver and the goldenl
And when at last earths love Is past.
All told tho fair, sweet story,
| Lift up your eyes where crystal skies
Reveal loves brighter glory.
